Just a thought but... do we really need a stub article on every single illustrator that has done at least one TCG card? Why can't they all just be contained here (like minor voice actors)? Articles like [[Rika (illustrator)|this]], or [[MINAMINAMI Take|this]], or [[Nagano|this]], or countless others (which look bot-generated, by the way) really contribute nothing to this Wiki. They just take up space. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] ([[User talk:Maxim|talk]]) 11:16, 15 July 2023 (UTC) | Just a thought but... do we really need a stub article on every single illustrator that has done at least one TCG card?

:Hi there! As each illustrator has contributed to more than just individual cards, the pages are there to help us catalogue their other efforts as we find them. The cards are just the easiest credits to find at the start before we branch the articles into something more like [[Amelicart|here]] or [[Nagomi Nijo|here]]. Recent sets have introduced a ton of new illustrators, so a lot of these pages are still a bit brief. But little by little we’re adding more and more info, so that will definitely change!

::It's all up to admins anyway, but I can already feel it coming that someday we'll be mass deleting those stub articles, just like we mass-deleted articles on minor VAs or shippings back in the day. But who knows... If it was up to me, I'd say that creating a two-sentence article "just in case something more happens so it can finally be expanded" is not the way to go and I wouldn't do it until more coverable content appears (and if never does, then said illustrator simply isn't worthy of an article). But if admins don't mind that, then neither do I. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] ([[User talk:Maxim|talk]]) 18:16, 15 July 2023 (UTC) | |||
